HENRY PODOLS KY, OF SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA.

srovn.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, Henry PoDoLsKY, a citizen of the United States, residing atSan Francisco, in the county of San Francisco, State of California, have invented a new and useful Stove, of which the following is ation in such full and clear terms able lil'lOSG skilled in the art to construct and use the same.

This invent-ion relates to a kitchen stove or range and its object is to provide means whereby the. possible amount of heat units may be abstracted from the fuel for the purpose of heating the oven.

This invention, while applicable to any range, is particularly useful in connection with oil burnors'where there is a blast which tends to draw most or" the heat out of the chimney rather than deliver it to the fines of the stove.

Other objects of the invention will appear as the description proceeds.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings in which the same reference numeral is applied to the sameportion throughout, but I am aware that there may be modifications thereof.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of the stove with portions broken away to show the interior construction of the fines,

the exterior stove casing, which has the oven 2, fire box 3. oven door 4, the ash door 5, the fire door 6, and damper 7, all of a well known construction. The top of the stove may be of any desired form and have any number of covers 8 desired.

lhe flues of the stove are connected with the chimney 9 which is at one end thereof. Adjacent this chimney there is the damper 10 which is operated by means of the handle.

11, said damper permitting the smoke to pass directly to the chimney whenever itis not desired to heat the oven. W' hen the damper 10 is closed, the smoke must pass down the flue 12 at the left of Fig. 1.

Surroundin and forming the oven, is a casing 11 which casing produces a flue 12 Specification of Letters Patent.

at one end of the st0ve, and a flue 13 at the bottom of the oven, which later is connected Patented Mar. 1, 1921. Application filed July 28, 1919. Serial No. 313,834.

with two fines 14:, 15 which extend up at the side ofthe oven adjacent the fire box and then pass over the top of the oven at front and rear respectively. Both flues 14 and 15 finally lead directly into the chimney and they are both spaced below thestove top. When the damper 10 is raised the smoke will have direct access to the chimney 9 through the opening covered by said damper so that the smoke will then pass down the flue 12 at the left of Fig. 1 under the stove'through the flue 13 and then back over the top through the flues 14 and '15.

From the foregoing construction, it will: be seen that when the damper 10 is raised, that the. heatfrom the fire will pass over the top of the oven down at the left of the oven, Fig. 1 underneath the oven, and around the opposite end of the oven and over the top, going into the two separate flues 14 and 15,

thereby afiording a better distribution of the heating than is possible where a single wider flue is used, as well as affording a greater area of flue surface for heat transfer to the oven.

What I'claim is as follows, but various,

modifications may be made in'the construction shown in the drawings and above par ticularly described form, within the purview of my invention.

A stovehaving a fire box, an oven formed therein, partitions in the stove forming a central ,flue with its bottom formed by the top of the oven and extending entirely across'one end of the oven and across the bottom of the oven, two other flues connecting the bottom flue with the chimney and.

extending across one end of the oven adjacent the fire box andover the top of the oven from front to rear and communicatingdirectly with the chimney, one of said flues I oneach side of'the central flue, the top of the stove being spaced away from the two latter flues sufficiently to allow the heat from the fire box to pass over the top of the oven and flues, across the entire width of the stove, and adamper to permit the smoke to pass directly to the chimney after passing through the central flue.

In testimony whereof I have hereuto set my hand this-11th day of J uly, A. -D. 1919. HENRY PODOLSKY.
